12 This program lists all configuration files, both the sources in the dot‐
13 files directories and the destinations in your home directory. See
14 rcup(1), the DIRECTORY LAYOUT section, for details on the directory lay‐
15 out. It supports these options:
16
17 -B HOSTNAME treat host-HOSTNAME as the host-specific directory instead
18 of computing it based on the computer's hostname
19
20 -d DIR list dotfiles from the DIR. This can be specified multiple
21 times.
22
23 -F show symbols next to each file indicating status informa‐
24 tion. Supported symbols are @ which indicates that the file
25 is a symlink, $ which indicates it's a symlinked directory,
26 and X to indicate that the file is a copy. More details on
27 copied files and symlinked directories can be found in
28 rcrc(5) under the documentation on COPY_ALWAYS and
29 SYMLINK_DIRS, respectively.
30
31 -h show usage instructions.
32
33 -I excl_pat include the files that match the given pattern. This is
34 applied after any -x options. It uses the same pattern lan‐
35 guage as -x; more details are in the EXCLUDE PATTERN sec‐
36 tion. Note that you may have to quote the exclude pattern so
37 the shell does not evaluate the glob.
38
39 -S excl_pat symlink the directories that match the given pattern. See
40 EXCLUDE PATTERN for more details. This option can be
41 repeated. You may need to quote the pattern to prevent the
42 shell from swallowing the glob.
43
44 -s excl_pat if a directory matches the given pattern, recur inside of it
45 instead of symlinking. See EXCLUDE PATTERN for more details.
46 This is the opposite of the -S option, and can be used to
47 undo it or the SYMLINK_DIRS setting in your rcrc(5) configu‐
48 ration. It can be repeated, and the pattern may need to be
49 quoted to protect it from your shell.
50
51 -t TAG list dotfiles according to TAG
52
53 -U excl_pat the rc files or directories matching this pattern will not
54 be symlinked or created with a leading dot. See EXCLUDE
55 PATTERN for more details. This option can be repeated. You
56 may need to quote the pattern to prevent the shell from
57 swallowing the glob.
58
59 -u excl_pat if an rc file or directory matches the given pattern, it
60 must be dotted. See EXCLUDE PATTERN for more details. This
61 is the opposite of the -U option, and can be used to undo it
62 or the UNDOTTED setting in your rcrc(5) configuration. This
63 option can be repeated. You may need to quote the pattern to
64 prevent the shell from swallowing the glob.
65
66 -V show the version number.
67
68 -v increase verbosity. This can be repeated for extra ver‐
69 bosity.
70
71 -q decrease verbosity
72
73 -x excl_pat exclude the files that match the given pattern. See EXCLUDE
74 PATTERN for more details. This option can be repeated. Quote
75 the pattern if it contains a valid shell glob.
76
77 files ... only list the specified file(s)
78
80 The exclude pattern specifies a colon-separated pair of dotfiles direc‐
81 tory and file glob. The dotfiles directory is optional and, if omitted,
82 defaults to *, which is a special token that matches any dotfiles direc‐
83 tory. The file glob is relative to the dotfiles directory, ignoring meta
84 directories. A colon combines them.
85
86 For example, to ignore all emacs-related items from the
87 thoughtbot-dotfiles directory, use the exclude pattern:
88
89 thoughtbot-dotfiles:*emacs*
90
91 To ignore any bash_profile file, use the pattern:
92
93 *:bash_profile
94
95 Or more simply:
96
97 bash_profile
98
99 Since exclude patterns are often valid shell globs, be sure to quote
100 them. See the caveats noted in BUGS when using an exclude pattern.
101
103 RCRC User configuration file. Defaults to ~/.rcrc.
104
106 ~/.dotfiles ~/.rcrc
107
109 mkrc(1), rcdn(1), rcup(1), rcrc(5), rcm(7)

116 For macOS systems, we strongly encourage the use of the HOSTNAME variable
117 in your rcrc(5). We use the hostname(1) program to determine the unique
118 identifier for the host. This program is not specified by POSIX and can
119 vary by system. On macOS the hostname is unpredictable, and can even
120 change as part of the DHCP handshake.
